Promise Me Tomorrow: Book 3 in the Witness Series (Volume 3)

by Heather D'Agostino

  I blinked a few times as I looked up at him. He was leaning over and reaching for me as a wide grin spread across his face. “You gonna come over here and welcome me home.” His eyes twinkled as he watched me.

  “Home?” I whispered in disbelief. “Home for good?” I tested the words, afraid that if I let myself believe them they wouldn’t be true. “But last night, you said...” I trailed off as his smile widened.

  “Home for good,” he chuckled as I grabbed his hand and let him pull me up. I looked around the bar, noticing it was still crazy busy, and my stomach twisted. I wanted so much to drag him in the back room and properly welcome him home, but I couldn’t just leave Lena by herself. She was good, but we were so busy even the best wouldn’t be able to handle it alone. I did as he asked and handed him his beer before leaning forward and giving him a peck on the cheek.

  He pulled back and scowled slightly as I started to turn away. “There’s more of that later; I’m slammed,” I giggled as I wiggled my ass before moving on to the next customer.

  The time seemed to go faster now that the guys were here, and as the minutes ticked by, both Jase and Dev hung out with us. Dev watched the band finish their set, but as closing loomed, Jase began mumbling what he wanted to do to me every time I’d come near him.

  “Stop leaning over,” he grumbled when I stopped to pick up a wine cork that didn’t make it into the trash. I arched my back slightly as I pushed my hips up. He hissed, and when I turned around, I noticed his eyes were dilated and full of lust.

  “Why?” I smiled as I pulled my bottom lip into my mouth. “Am I bothering you?”

  He ran his palm down his face and chuckled when his fingers brushed over his smooth jaw. “I’m hanging by a thread here, sweetheart. Last night wasn’t enough, and now that I don’t plan on leaving any time soon, I’m ready to take you home.”

  I swallowed as my body started to hum. Jase had always been the type to tell me what he wanted. We knew each other very well in the physical sense; the emotional stuff was new to us. “I can’t leave yet. I have to help clean up,” I sighed before turning around. I cupped my hands around my mouth as I shouted, “Last call!”

  Jase nodded like I was doing it for him, but I laughed and pointed at the clock. It was one thirty in the morning. The bar closed at two. Sam and Dev had left hours ago, and Lena and I were supposed to help Mason lock up. Jase made a dramatic show of how frustrated he was, but I knew that he was teasing. I tossed a rag at him and then batted my eyes, “If you want it to go faster, you could wipe those tables down over there.” I pointed across the room before turning back to serve the last group of customers. Between the four of us, I was hoping to leave in the next hour. I had tomorrow off, and I too wanted to get back to Jase’s place and lose myself.

  Ooooooooo

  “Holy fuck, it’s about time!” he hooted as we pushed through the back door and into the parking lot. His bike was parked right beside my car, and I grinned when he began leading me over to it. “Ride with me,” he murmured as he brushed his lips against mine. “We’ll come back for your car tomorrow.”

  “Do you have an extra helmet?” I moaned as his hands trailed down my back and squeezed my rear.

  He reached to the side and quickly produced a helmet that looked just like his, only smaller. “I was hoping you’d say yes. I’ve thought about this a few dozen times,” he grinned.

  “Thought about what?” I smiled as he fastened the strap under my chin.

  “Having you on the back of my bike.” He gave a final tug to make sure it was tight before turning to pull the rear foot pegs down. Jase had ridden his bike around me, but I’d always followed in my car. As many times as we’d gone to each other’s apartments after work, I’d never ridden with him. “I wanna feel you pressed against my back as we hug the curves.”

  “Damn,” I muttered as I watched him throw his leg over the seat. He turned the key and revved it to life as he slipped his own helmet in place.

  I stood there, giddy with excitement as he slid forward and patted the spot behind him. He held out his hand to help as I climbed on then warned me to hold on tight. I wrapped my arms around his waist and squeezed, feeling his stomach suck in. I grinned behind the helmet’s shield as I moved my fingers lightly over his abs. They clinched before he glanced over his shoulder. “What do you think you’re doing?”

  “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I shrugged before doing it again.

  “You’re going to pay for this. I hope you know that.” He stood the bike upright and moved the kickstand before beginning to roll forward. As the bike slowly moved out of the parking lot, I leaned my head against his back. It was a cool night, probably too cool to be riding without a coat, but the heat coming off Jase was enough to keep any woman warm.

  We swerved through the streets of Chicago as Jase drove us to his condo before he parked in the garage. As he was pulling off his helmet, I skimmed my hand over the obvious bulge in his jeans. He groaned as his hips pushed forward harder into my hand. “What are you doing to me tonight,” he hissed.

  “Nothing that I haven’t done before,” I was a little confused by his questions. We’d had some pretty hot sex in our past, but Jase was acting like we’d never been together. “You’re awfully turned on for someone who was at my place last night. Did I leave you unsatisfied?” I teased. I knew he’d gotten off, multiple times actually.

  “It’s different now. I was holding back before, only letting the physical part in. Now, it means something, and fuck baby, if I don’t want to be buried in you when I explain this. Tell me you’ll stay the weekend. Tell me we have time to make this mean something.”

  My heart swelled a little more with each word he uttered, and I watched his face unravel right there in the parking garage. I’d wanted this for so long, and I never thought I’d have it. I pulled the helmet from my head and laughed as I ran my fingers though what I’m sure was a mess. I climbed off the bike before putting my hands on my hips and tapping my foot. “Well? Let’s go,” I laughed. It was a mix of nerves and excitement because I knew that this would be different. I wasn’t going to get the Jase I’d had for the last several months. I wasn’t even going to get the one from last night. No, this Jase was the one I’d been asking for. He’d show me what being with the real him was like. He was willingly opening his heart to let me in, and I had no plans of ever giving it back.

  Chapter 12

  Tiffany

  As we walked toward the elevators in the parking garage, I could feel my body heating. It knew what was coming, and when Jase pushed the elevator call button and wrapped his arm around me, I jumped.

  “You ok?” He peered down at me with confusion on his face.

  “Un huh.” I bit my lip as I nodded.

  “Good.” He jerked his head quickly as the doors opened. “I hope you’ve got energy because we aren’t sleeping tonight, baby.” He tugged me after him, and the moment the doors closed, he pressed me into it. “I’ve been thinking about this all night. The moment I walked into that bar and saw this tight little ass bent over in those jeans... all I could think about was peeling them off of you and sinking so deep that you remember it for days.”

  “Jase?” I panted. He was pressing his hips against mine as he whispered his thoughts in my ear. His breath was feathering over my cheeks while my heart thundered in my chest.

  “What, baby?” he skimmed his nose along my jaw before nipping my ear.

  “I need you so much,” I whimpered. At that moment, the doors to the elevator dinged open causing Jase to jump into action. He spun, gripped my hips, and tossed me over his shoulder. I couldn’t contain the squeal that burst out of me, and he chuckled as he began walking to his door. “What are you doing?” I smacked his jean clad ass as I wiggled on his shoulder upside down.

  “I told you you’d pay. I’m taking it now. We’re doing things my way tonight.” he glanced around his shoulder at me and grinned. I sighed, resigned to being his captive as he shifted a
nd opened the door.

  When we stepped inside, he didn’t bother turning on the lights. He tossed his keys on the counter, grabbed something from a drawer, and then continued to carry me toward the bedroom. “I can walk you know?” I teased as I rolled my eyes.

  “I know,” he answered as he continued to stride toward the bedroom. “I wouldn’t want you to run though. I’ve got big plans for this tight little body of yours,” his voice was rough, and as soon as he stepped through the door, he kicked it shut.

  He reached in the attached bath and turned on a light, creating a soft glow in the bedroom. Only the bed was visible, and not a thing was out of place. He leaned forward, dropping me on the soft mattress before sliding me toward the headboard. “What are you...” the words died on my lips as his grin came full force and I saw what he’d grabbed on the way in.

  A pair of metal handcuffs gleamed in the low light. I swallowed. We’d never used any toys or even talked about tying each other up. “Are those real?” I whispered. He refused to answer as he reached for my right wrist. I resisted slightly, and he glared at me. There was a dominance there that I’d never seen from him. It was as if I’d unleashed a beast, and it both thrilled me and scared me a little. He obviously saw this and paused.

  “You know I’d never hurt you, right?” His eyes softened as he clicked the cuff around my wrist. It was tight, but not too tight. I nodded and he leaned in to press his lips to mine. I slowly melted into the kiss, relaxing my body, and that’s when he made his move. He pressed his body into mine as he grabbed my other wrist, looped the cuffs through the headboard, and secured me. When he released my hand and leaned back, breaking the kiss, he smiled a naughty smile. “You look so fucking sexy like this.”

  “And I’m not even naked.” My voice shook with lust and nerves. I was turned on beyond belief, more so over the fact that Jase and I would be sleeping in the same bed again tonight. He wasn’t kicking me out after we were finished, and this was leading somewhere.

  “I think we can fix that,” he snickered as he began to work open the button on my jeans. He tugged as I lifted my hips, and the denim slid easily down my thighs revealing the sexy red lace thong I had hidden underneath. “What’s this?” His index finger trailed lightly over the underwear and right across my center. “Who were you planning to show this to?”

  “No one,” I gasped as my eyes fluttered closed. My hips lifted as they searched for more friction, but Jase pulled away.

  “It better be no one.” His voice deepened again with his warning as he bent forward and ran his nose up the inside of my thigh. “This tight little pussy is mine and only mine. Do you hear me, Tiffany?” he growled and my head bobbed frantically as I tried to squeeze my thighs together to alleviate some of the pressure that was building. I’d forgotten my worry at this point, and all I wanted was for Jase to fuck me...HARD!

  “Hold still!” he commanded as one of his fingers ran long my panties before dipping behind them to tease me. I whimpered as I bit my lip harder, trying to hold onto my sanity. He was wrecking me, pure and simple, and I wasn’t sure I wanted to ever stop.

  I tugged at the cuffs over my head as he pulled away. I wanted to touch him, and being restrained, I wasn’t able too. “Please, let me go,” I whispered as he slowly slid from the bed. His head shook from side to side as he reached behind his neck and yanked his shirt over his head. His broad chest came into view, and I licked my lips just thinking about touching it. Jase was built like a machine. His muscles worked in perfect sync as he moved around the room. I felt like a lamb being stalked by a lion. “This is hardly fair,” I grumbled as he slowly removed his jeans. The belt buckle jingled as he let them drop to the floor before kicking them to the side. He moved over to the dresser in the room, and opened a drawer revealing a pair of scissors.

  “I hope you have more of these,” he muttered as he took the scissors and cut up the front of my Rusty Nail shirt. My mouth dropped open in shock as he fanned the two halves of the shirt open, revealing my bra. “Damn,” he hissed before leaning forward to bite a nipple through the lace.

  “Jase,” I groaned. “Stop teasing me,” I bucked my hips on the bed as my hands tugged at the cuffs once more.

  “I like teasing you.” He tossed the scissors to the side before stripping out of his boxer briefs and climbing back on the bed. “I like teasing you a lot. In fact... I think I’ll start here,” his finger circled my nipple before he tugged the cups of my bra down causing my breasts to spill over the top. “Fuck me,” he growled as he leaned over to lick one.

  “That’s what I want,” I moaned as I felt his tongue smooth over the hardened bud. “Oh god,” I arched my back, causing my breast to press harder against his mouth, but Jase wasn’t having it. He flattened his palm on my stomach and held me to the bed.

  “Hold still!” he commanded as he moved to the other breast. His tongue swirled before he bit down causing me to yelp. He soothed the sting immediately before licking up to my neck. “You smell like beer,” he mumbled as he licked up to my ear before biting gently.

  “I worked tonight. I usually shower when I get home,” I panted. I was lucky I could still form a sentence with the way he was turning me on.

  “We’ll take a shower for round two,” he chuckled as a hand began making its way down my belly and dipping into my panties. “Right now I think I owe this little piece of heaven some attention.” My eyes blinked a few times, but before I truly registered what he was talking about, he’d torn the thong from me, and was kissing his way right to where I wanted him.

  “Jase?” I tried to move my hips, but he had me pinned. His arms flexed as he held me there, and when I looked down, the reflected lust in his eyes made me just about go over the edge right then.

  “I’m going to make it all better,” he murmured as he leaned forward and ran his tongue over me. He hummed in approval as his tongue dipped deep coaxing my orgasm to the surface.

  “Oh God,” I panted again. “I’m gonna come,” my head arched back, forcing my chin in the air as he moved to my clit. He sucked and circled it with his tongue a few times before nipping lightly. The slight sting caused my eyes to roll and my body to tremble and I fell apart.

  “That’s right,” he growled appreciatively. “Come for me. Only me.” He sounded all cave man as he leaned in and lapped at me again. “Fuck, you taste good when you come.”

  He continued to lick as my body came back down and slowly sank into the mattress like a pile of goo. I wasn’t sure right then if there was anything left in me for the rest of the night, but Jase had other plans. His cock was hard and pointing right at me as he moved on all fours to hover over me. “You are so damn sexy, and for the life me, I don’t know why I waited so long. Fuck, Tiff! I want you so goddamn bad right now. Every fiber in my body wants you.” He leaned down and placed a deep kiss on my lips. I groaned in response as he nibbled on my lip. I could taste myself on him, and hell if that didn’t turn me on more.

  I tugged at the cuffs once again in frustration as my hips lifted to rub against him. His cock pulse when it touched me, and I heard him suck in a sharp breath. “I want to fuck you so bad,” he hissed but held back.

  “I’m waiting,” I teased as I watched the restraint on his face start to give way.

  “I don’t think I can take this slow. I want to, but seeing you here, in my bed, tied up like this,” he trailed a hand down my bound arm. “It does something to me. Knowing that I can do this again tomorrow, and the next day... I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of you.”

  “Jase.” I wiggled my hips as I cradled his, trying to get his attention. He lifted his eyes to mine as I grinned up at him. “Fuck me,” I narrowed my gaze, “hard, now.”

  He froze as his head dipped and shook slightly. “You don’t know what you’re asking for. You’ve never gotten me this worked up before. This is different,” he warned.

  “Show me,” I taunted. I wanted to see him lose it. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever seen him without restra
int and hell if that thought didn’t thrill me.

  “Tell me to stop if I hurt you,” he commanded before pulling back slightly. He waited until I nodded my understanding before his hips surged forward, his cock impaling me.

  I moaned as my eyes closed. My body adjusted quickly since we’d just been together the night before. This was different though. We’d stopped using condoms. I was on the shot, and I trusted Jase. After the time in shower, I didn’t really see a point, but holy hell, did it make a difference. I could feel every hard warm inch of him, and it was amazing.

  “Fuck, you feel good,” he gasped as he pulled back and slammed forward once again. “I’m not gonna last long,” he panted. He reached down and grabbed my ankles, placing them on his shoulders as he leaned forward creating a deeper angle. His cock was hitting that magic spot, and my body was shaking over it.

  “Harder, Jase!” I screamed as his hips pistoned into me. Sweat began to drip from his brow as his face contorted. He was trying to hold on, but his body wasn’t agreeing with what his mind wanted. “More!” I screamed again.

  “Shit, baby!” he growled as he began to move faster. The bed was banging into the wall causing a loud thumping that I’m sure woke the neighbors, but I didn’t care. I was finally seeing the out of control version of Jase that I’d tried to coax out for months.

  He leaned forward and grabbed the headboard using it as an anchor as his hips pounded faster, harder. His eyes scrunched closed as his mouth dropped open before his entire body shuddered. When I felt him tremble against me, it set me off, causing me to fall with him. We’d always had pretty good timing, but I’d never pushed him to lose control like that.

  “Fuck,” he panted as he collapsed on me. His body was heavy, but I welcomed the weight. “You fucking unravel me,” he huffed as he nuzzled my neck.
